Does said Bushnell Elite have enough range of adjustment to get to 1000?
A friend took me to an F-class shoot this weekend and I was able to get 600 and 1000 yard zeros with a tapered base but my Leupold will not now go down to 100.
I was considering the Super Sniper if I wanted to make a moderate effort and expenditure and not go hog wild with a Leupold Long Range or Nightforce.

My Bushnell 10x Mildot is on a Savage 10FP .308 with a Ken Farrell 0MOA flat base. I need between 11-13 minutes of elevation to get from my 100yd zero to 600yds (varies depending on bench or bipod, front-to-back or back-to-front wind conditions, etc).
According to the Bushnell specifications page at
http://www.bushnell.com/products/rif.../32-1040m.html, it has 100 inches of adjustment at 100 yards, which means 100MOA. I doubt that's the case. I'm guessing it's 50MOA up or down from the scope's centered optical axis. If you're shooting a load recipe that can make 1000 yards with less than a 40MOA drop from a 100 yard zero, then you should be able to use the Bushnell for 100-1000 yard shooting and maintain zeros at both distances with a flat base.
